[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AgentSmith:
The Galaxy Nexus is indeed no longer part of the smartphone top though I certainly wouldn't call it low end either. I've had low end devices of more recent design in my hands and they're ridiculously slow compared to the GN.

No matter what your personal opinion might be about ART, fact is experiences vary a lot. I for one belong to the party that experienced no noticeable effect from it. You clearly belong to the group that believes otherwise. Instead of calling each other stupid or trying to disprove each other's statements we'd better try to discover the why behind this variation. Surely Google as the driving force behind ART sees it as a promising future for Android. Perhaps the largest improvements have yet to arrive or perhaps ART on the Galaxy Nexus simply isn't a match due to all sorts of software issues.

Placebo is considered a serious phenomenon in science and is always to be ruled out by double blind experiments. As far as I know this has never been conducted with ART. Until that moment we can neither use it as an argument nor rule it out.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chustin:
I switched to ART recently after getting CM11M8 and I have similar experience; It FELT somewhat faster on certain apps, and after several days, I noticed lagging apps and slowdown in general use, i.e. switching between apps and launching the dialer etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kinfolk248:
yep, my galaxy nexus starts to slow down as well after a while on ART. It stutters and lags and pisses me off lol

edit: even flipped kernel to performance and still have lag smh ay yi yi...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] garuhhh:
Same experience on my gNexus, so I went back to Dalvik. I'm not sure if it matters, but I had close to 200 apps installed.

Now I'm on Nexus 4, everything seems to be OK with ART. Almost same number of apps installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kinfolk248:
well i only have about 60 apps on my kitkat rom, but yeah I just went back to dalvik. Now if i could just get play services to stop tapping my battery lol

Mods please archive/remove this thread as links are no longer valid.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] MikeyLee:
Nice! Would be awesome if the Sammobile site actually would download it. Keeps giving a stupid error
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigmase23:
Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
Well... What's the news? Anyone got it get and crack open that zip to see what's inside?

I'm interested if it will reset Knox to 0x0.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rpenrod23:
I've been trying to d/l it from Hotfile since I created this thread but since I don't have a premium account, the d/l is taking for damn ever. I'll flash once I get it and let you know...my Knox is currently 0x1 but I don't have high hopes this Odin will matter. I'll let you know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
I keep getting the download stopped.

---------- Post added at 04:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

Even if it doesn't, I've preferred a full install over an update patch.

---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 PM ----------

I'm on my third or fourth attempt at downloading. Trying my flaky WiFi home connection now. With the links, you can't DL if you're not a member of one if the sites and the other, not hotfile, is over the size limit for free dl'ing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rpenrod23:
The d/l finally completed for me...almost 3 hours later. Working on nandroid and then going to Odin this tar...I'll report back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] MikeyLee:
Downloading now. Says 2 hours left. We'll see but at least this will hopefully give the devs something to build off of or something to create an update zip
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
I'm trying a download manager to see if that will hold onto the transfer a little better than just a browser.

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------

Two hours here too. Argh!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rpenrod23:
I can confirm that this Tar is valid and worked to Odin back to MJ4 stock, unrooted. Woot woot!!! :good::D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gerald410:
Downloading now:)

After flashing MJ4 Tar

Knox 0x0

System status Official
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
Well? What does your Knox counter say now?

---------- Post added at 05:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 PM ----------

Does it seem to run better than your previous setup?

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:26 PM ----------

Previously you were at 0x1? If it does reset, that is a huge relief (if you need to bring the phone in for repairs)!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rpenrod23:
Knox still at 0x1; hard to say if it's running better than before because I was running Bonsai, which was AWESOME, but it's running just dandy. LOL
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rpenrod23:
Was your Knox 0x1 prior to flashing this Tar?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gerald410:
No I've always been Knox 0x0
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
Damn! Well, maybe we'll get lucky, like the sprint s4 section and get a bootloader with Knox removed or eventually find a way to reset it.

---------- Post added at 06:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 PM ----------

http://omegadroid.co/wanted-knox-void-warranty-0x1/ Just googled something about Knox. Looks like even custom bootloaders that have Knox removed will be locked out from further updates. Even supposedly a JTAG won't reset it. My suggestion to those of you who are Knox 0x0, stay that way. Don't install custom recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] MikeyLee:
If this is completely bone stock factory firmware flashed through Odin then I don't know why Knox wouldn't reset. Really sucks if it doesn't but at least us rooted folks can get the full update and get rid of the call audio issue. I threatened Sprint with a Class Action lawsuit for the firmware blocking because as paying customers we are free to do whatever we want with our phones even if it voids a warranty. But when there is a software issue out of the box that they need to correct then everyone should be entitled to that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
According to the article, and the link to chainfire's comments, once the counter is tripped, it cannot be reset. I saw there's over a $1100 bounty to be able to reset the counter, but no luck yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kompster:
Anyone willing to host a mirror for this? Those official mirrors are slow as hell. Might just Odin back to stock and take the update that way, probably faster.

I live in Canada and going to Cuba. Is there an appz like Skype that I can use to call home free. They want like $3.50 a minute to call home.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RL_ka:
Skype? Viber?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jiibus:
If they use Skype too then it's free.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wyrman:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RL_ka:

wireless or mobile network
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redndian:
Try Magicjack or Talkatone. I have not used it but read it once on some forum. Search Play store by Free Calling Apps.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wyrman:
Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wyrman:
Just checked out the prices for data in Cuba. Pretty steep.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GSLEON3:
Google Voice. I use it for calls to Ireland & Germany. It is .03 to .04 cents a minute & you can prepay amounts into your Google Voice account ahead of time in $10.00 increments. Sound quality is great, it will use your phone number for caller ID & you can get text messages to the number. Check it out.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wyrman:
This is a downloadable appz?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BiznessMan:
Why not just use Wifi with Skype, Viber, or even Facebook Messenger? As far as using your actual phone minutes rather than data, I guess Google Voice would be a good solution.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RL_ka:
but for what? using google voice you should pay for mobile data + google voice

using Viber makes it cheaper. I used it many times, perfect. :o
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanVanDamn:
As long as it hasn't changed since October 2012 just forget it. Cubacel is way too slow for any data connection and in three hotels I've been to (Varadero, Havanna and Pinar) they almost laughed at me asking for WiFi. 1h was 6 Dollars with super slow speed and crappy computers.

Just forget about internet and enjoy your stay.

Although Cuba is Central America, it definitely is.

We had this guide Leonardo, educated English teacher, who is playing around with his Blackberry he got as a gift. Only SMS and calls.

But...the whole country is way too interesting for playing around with your smartphone. You'd better take some extra SD-cards for your camera with you.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dehaha1:
Alright, so I got the Nexus 5 a few days ago, but have been too afraid to open it because of one reason.

Battery Life.

So I was wondering if there was a not too expensive portable battery charger that was not only reliable, but also could be used in my pocket, so that when I'm out and about it can be charging?

I don't actually know if that's a thing, but it would be quite nice, and I wouldn't have to get rid of my Nexus that I've always dreamed of and instead go to a Note 3.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mynix:
Anker batteries

I am waiting a few days in order to see how its battery handles my day, and if it doesn't i'll go for an Anker Astro Mini (3000mAh about 20€/$ very small) or Anker Astro Slim(6000mAh about 30€/40$, usb cable incorporated but bigger than mini of course)

Every Anker product seems to be good, so I personnaly would go for one of them and recommand them to you.

Slim3 http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00CEZJT2E/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1384194495&sr=8-1&pi=SY200

Mini : http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005NF5NTK/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1384194367&sr=8-1&pi=SY200

Or you have the more massive ones for about 40-60€ and 10000-15000mAh ^^

Also, the 2600mAh small cube battery by powerbank for less than 10€ but reviews are a bit worse (4.0/5.0, still no major issues so)

Here's the link : http://www.amazon.fr/gp/aw/d/B00DECT51G/ref=pd_aw_sbs_2?pi=SS115

Hope I helped you.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dehaha1:
I do have a quick question about the mini.

Will I be able to use it in my pocket, or will it get hot or overheat?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landwomble:
They all work great. I have an Ankhar 8000mAH one with 2 USB outs and its very handy. You can charge it using the same lead rather than carry another wire, which is why I chose it. Works fine in your pocket.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] chillas:
My USB port died a few months ago - no data, no charge. I've been getting by with an extra battery and the external battery charger, but I'd really like to be able to transfer file between my computer and my phone faster than Kies does.

I watched a few videos on how to do the replacement and ordered the part. When I got it, though, I notice on the replacement board it says "rev 0.8" while mine says"rev 0.7." On visual inspection they look nearly identical, some different in the shape of the USB port. But I don't want to take a chance on frying anything.

Anyone have any idea if I can use this replacement or not.

Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to make the phone vibration sync with music/movies/media?

not just one level of vibration but mulitleveled, so where if its a slow song/piano or a part in the movie with someone driving on a dirt/gravel road, to a bass/heavy song or a intense scene from a action movie,and is it possible to get the vibration to travel in different directions through the phone?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayRokk:
Look up Subwoofer vibrator on Play

It makes the phone vibrate according to music/or sound coming out of your phone.
[Verizon LG G2] Virusbetax:
I recently purchased a LG G2 Verizon model to use on T-Mobile. I recieved the phone and reset to make a fresh start for me so i dont have any software problems. Little did i know i could not get past the setup screen with verizon sim activation a requirement. So after a lot of research i found the fix.

1. Make sure you are the screen where you choose the language.

2. Press these buttons in exact order. Volume up then volume down then back then menu then home.

3. There should be two pop windows warning about leaving setup. Go ahead and click yes for both and confirm.

4. Voila! You just bypass the verizon setup screen!

*This process is helpful for when u reset phone or perform a update in the future.

Hope this helps many of you G2 users out there!
[Verizon LG G2] rubiksecs:
Thank you!!!!

I cannot describe the despair I felt upon realizing I might need a verizon card to use my brand new phone. Many thanks! :D
[Verizon LG G2] Jstlouis1993:
This is actually VERY helpful! I too got my Verizon LG G2 in November, once rooted and switch to T-Mobile, I realize I still needed to keep my Verizon sim card which is a annoyance having to keep. Because of that I stray away from LG Stock roms and to CM roms.. Now I can flash Verizon LG roms without having to switch Sim cards or flashing a T-Mobile Stock rom and using a Verizon Patch!
[Verizon LG G2] jiml87:
Thank you!

After getting frustrated speaking to Verizon about getting past the activation screen so I could use my phone that I own outright with any carrier I want to and got nowhere I decided to search the internet and found this very helpful post. Many thank!
[Verizon LG G2] sefirosu0522:
Sorry to bump a dead thread. Would this work going overseas? I'm going to South America in two weeks. I can just buy a sim down there and follow this? Does it matter if I'm running a stockish ROM? Do you have to factory reset or just power off and insert new card and change settings?
[Verizon LG G2] Virusbetax:
Yes it will work. And I'm glad to see I have helped so many people!

If If u can don't reset. But this guide is basically if you reset the phone. Any SIM card will work in the phone no need to change any settings. This guide is if you reset the phone on the stock rom. I recommend flashing a custom rom which has this removed.
[Verizon LG G2] sefirosu0522:
I don't mind doing a factory reset. Right now I'm running Steel Droid. I could also run XDABEBB'S ROM which is also based on stock. Would you recommend being on AOSP or will one of the custom stock roms work?
[Verizon LG G2] Virusbetax:
As long as it's not the original rom by Verizon your all set you don't even need this hack.

[Verizon LG G2] radicalbill:
Does anyone know the name of the app or file to change to disable the setup app ?

I know using the up down back home works to bypass the verizon setup, but I have seen on other threads that there are apps that can be turned off or files that can be renamed on other phone to prevent this activation screen from coming up.

Does anyone know the file name or app name and location that needs to be changed ?

[Verizon LG G2] Christianihechi:
I assume your sim had worked previously before you did a factory reset. Well, I had such issues sometime ago. What I did was, I inserted my local sim(which is not being detected) and turned the phone on, went to Settings, selected More under Network and changed Network mode to

GSM

and then changed it back to

Auto mode

. That solved it and my sim got connected to the mobile network. Hope it helps;).

HI! It was my first thread in Java Dev in this forum :fingers-crossed:

I Want to presend you my first Class for Android App Developers.

CPUClass

Now you Can Get CPU Information , CPU Speed and CPU Scaling in your APP :D

I write it half year ago so sorry for this code. important that works :laugh::laugh:

What you can without SU:

-Get Max CPU Frequency

-Get Min CPU Frequency

-Get CPU Information

-Get current CPU Frequency

-Get current governor

Get governor list

And with SU:

-Set Max CPU Frequency

-Set Min CPU Frequency

-Set governor

HOW TO USE IT

in app you must init it

CPUClass.init(false) // if you want only "get"

or

CPUClass.init(true) // if you want "get" and "set" CPU

Here is ScreenShot with use this class

Download:

https://github.com/CheQ/android_classes/blob/master/CPUClass

Testing on Alcatel Ot -908 (GB) and LG L5(4.1).

If clas doesn't work you can edit from which file Class must read CPU infro Here -

/* freq files */
public static String file_scaling_max = "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq" ;
public static String file_scaling_min = "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq" ;
